“Not worth the price!!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

For the price you would expect to have a nice bed to sleep in, a nice clean room, and a place to park...especially with the price!! Not here....the beds were HORRIBLE!! Very uncomfortable! No ventilation in the bathroom, and behind the bed (as we noticed while looking for an outlet) we found used and a few unopen beer cans and trash. We called the front desk and as it was late we opted them to clean it in the morning. We did get a breakfast ticket. As we returned (from our seminar that was held in the hotel ) we decided to check the status of the beer cans.,,,and they were still there!!!!! Very unhappy and its a shame because I usually choose to stay at Holiday Inns:(

We apologize for the trouble you had during your stay with us. We are implementing a process to check EVERY ice machine, heater, bed, and toilet in the hotel to make sure they are in working order. Although you experienced a great deal of frustration we thank you for being honest about your stay. That information will allow us to improve the hotel in every area. I would enjoy the opportunity to talk further with you about your stay and the steps we are taking to address your concerns.

Thank you again for taking the time to complete this review.

“Property Getting Tired”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 January 2012

I've stayed here numerous times on business. It's an OK place to stay. Customer service is generally good, but....
The shuttle service is not what they say it is. I've been left waiting for an hour when I was told I'd get picked up in 15 minutes. Ice machines have not always worked. The beds are getting old and sag in the middle. The heaters in the room are so loud they wake you up when they kick in during the night. It's losing it, and fast.

Thank you for taking the time to review the hotel. Every response is read and the comments are taken very seriously. We apologize if you have had to wait on our shuttle. We try to be as accommodating as possible where our shuttle is concerned and at times doing that can cause difficulties. We have implemented a two mile radius for transporting guests excluding the airport runs so hopefully you will not have the same experience of waiting as you have in the past.

We are continually renovating the hotel trying to keep it as updated and fresh as possible. We have implemented a new program where every bed, heater, and ice machine is checked and have started replacing them when needed. Hopefully this will eliminate the problems that you mentioned. We appreciate your feedback and the fact that you are a frequent guest makes your concerns even more valid. We hope you see the changes we are implementing on your next trip to Lincoln.

“Equal to a 3.5, 4 star hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 January 2012

Lincoln has some funny/different hotel rating scales. This Holiday Inn is on par with 3.5/4 star hotels we have visited in other cities. Kyl, a manager, stepped up and delivered when we needed it the most. Thanks! Enjoyed our stay. Very clean for an older property, Request a floor above the 10th floor for a good view of the city.

Room Tip: The check in desk is located where the red (no parking) curb is, go ahead and park there for check i...

“Overall experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 December 2011

The overall experience of this hotel was good. The hotel is clean and is kept clean. Barbara in the lounge became a friend who made excellent suggestions on local interest. She made the stay enjoyable.

“Good find”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 December 2011

Very decent hotel in a fun downtown atmosphere. Opted to stay instead of continuing farther west for the night. Very good call. Daughter enjoyed pool and our room was just as nice as something you'd find at the Sheraton chain. Amazed it's a Holiday Inn. We just drove 12 hours so we're pretty open minded at this point.
